This is a very fun book.,
It contains stories (and photos, paintings, and drawings) by the men and women who know and love the Canyon best. The stories are funny and touching and really give a sense of why the Canyon is such a special and wonderful place. The artwork and photos are a nice bonus. Raechel M. Running’s portraits of the boatmen (a generic term: both men and women refer to themselves as boatmen) are particulary good.

Funny and Entertaining stories…,
I went on this trip with my family last July, then picked up the book. We first saw it at Phantom Ranch on day four of our river raft journey in the Grand Canyon. I had to have the book when we got back. The vacation was the best we’ve ever taken. I hope to do the trip again sometime in my lifetime. If you ever get a chance I highly recommend it. The book is a glimps from the viewpoint of the river guides, some stories are funny, some poinent, all highly entertaining. I can pick up the book and read any story and it will always bring me back to the canyon. Loved it!
